Discovered in 1846 built into a souterrain (CO085-06702-) with five other ogham stones (CO085-067003-; CO085-067004-; CO085-067005-; CO085-067007-; CO085-067008-), now in the collection of the National Museum of Ireland (DU018-372----). The inscription is cut on one angle of the stone (1.3m; 0.6m x 0.2m), read by Macalister (1945, 97, no. 100) as AB ULCCAGNI. Macalister (1945, 97, no. 100) thought the prefix AB an abbreviation of Abbot. According to McManus (1991, 61) the AB 'is best ignored.' (Power et al. 1997, no. 7951)
